Me again lol - just came from a storm tracking forum where those that used Streets & Trips have changed to DeLorme - found this on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/DeLorme-Street-At ... B00G0PPX10

I'm not ready to buy something else - will, for now, continue using S&T's - but will keep this in mind - nice to know there is a mapping company out there that still is doing this type of program. But the reviews aren't very good.

On edit - suggest everyone who wants to keep S&T's email microsoft - let them know how you feel:

Who knows - on to other things, I guess - or the belief that everyone is okay with online maps and their gps's?

I'm in the hospital with Harold. He had surgery Tuesday for the blood in his urine issue. He had a kidney removed 15 Years ago for a tumor. The old tube that went from that kidney to the bladder was bleeding. It was removed. The doctor thinks it probably had cancer in it but didn't see where it had spread any. We haven't gotten the results on that yet. He will probably be in the hospital until Sunday. The doctor wants to be sure the bladder is healing and closing. The first 2 days were hard with the IV's and all that mess. I wasn't getting much sleep but last night I got 4 straight hours before they woke me up. Harold is getting a little stronger everyday so hopefully by Sunday we can go home.

My son came and stayed this afternoon so I could go feed the house cats, take a shower and pick up my laptop. I only had my tablet and was having computer withdrawal.

Praying for Harold's speedy recovery and good results from pathology.
Get rest when you can. I know how that is, for sure.

Martha, Harold's lucky you're there with him. And I think it's wonderful that more hospitals are allowing it. But do make sure you get your rest or you'll be in there for medical reasons. Hospitals are never good places for sleeping. Prayers for you both.
